Hearty congratulations to your team and your fan base for the big win. Your penultimate scoring drive was a thing of beauty. Googling “imposing one’s will” should now turn up compilation clips of that fourth quarter imposed sodomy. And Georgia’s D ain’t too shabby.

I’m compelled to post these tidings – something I would not normally do – because I’m extremely put off by the proliferation of bitching and moaning threads – almost exclusively by LSU fans – that bemoan Alabama’s success. I’m as pissed as any of them over dropping the last two to the hated Tide, but that’s our problem not yours. Ya’ll didn’t write the book; you read it. If you don’t TCB you don’t get to bitch.

That said - please TCB against the Domers. Good luck.

Why? He's right. There has been non-stop bitching by LSU fans about refs, scheduling, etc., since Bama beat LSU the last go-around. It's reaching new levels of bitch-fest since Bama beat GA this past weekend.

Never seen more whining from one fan-base in my life.

I’ve been an LSU fan for a long time. I’m not an old, old timer – but I’ve been doing this for awhile. I don’t want a cookie – I’m just establishing some context.

I’ve never until very recently been embarrassed to be an LSU fan. Not during our mid- to late-70s mediocrity and not during that awful decade before the turn of the century. But I’m starting to feel it now – especially these last few days reading threads right here.

Success has spoiled a significant chunk of our fan base and it’s maddening. Bama winning the last two against us has flipped a “full retard” switch in many. Perhaps I just notice it more with the proliferation of technology that gives everyone a voice, coupled with the notion that the dumbest, most misguided voices are often the loudest. To be fair, this cuts both ways - and quite a bit of the criticism the Tide garners - just or unjust - is due to that portion of its fan base. It's bait.

Threads that rail against Alabama and Saban and (ironically) Miles are not what being an LSU fan is about. But they persist – and the result of their abundance is the entire Tiger fan base being labeled a bunch of whiny bitches.

Not it.

LSU fans aren't often rivaled in arrogance, entitlement, stupidity, and passion.

Alabama does

It is sad, well spoken! Half the people on SECRant log on just to laugh at so called LSU fans whine.

Thank you, and the respect is quite mutual. When our fans start going overboard, I have the same sort of reaction.

I will enjoy Bamas whipping Notre Lames arse. I do not like Bama as they are a division competitor, but I LOATHE Notre Lame and that pompous shite fan base that thinks that people in the south are a bunch of inbred rednecks. Frick them and their ugly women and shitty tasteless food. Frick them and their sob story linebacker,their current coach who let his video guy die for the sake of practice footage, and former coach that wont shut the FRICK up on ESPN on how great..slur..notre...slur..spit..lame is..slur spit.

Props to Bama too. UGA played hard but Alabama was the phisically tougher side as seen by the rushing numbers. Two huge special teams plays and clock issues at the end of the half kept UGA close.

Great game and atmosphere, the SEC has separated so much from the other leagues that the sport in general may be suffering.

How on earth can you transfer the posts of 40-50 LSU fans on a random message board and assign the entire fan base of millions of alumni and fans as AAAALLLLLLLLLLL thinking or saying the same thing ???
And noooo, I don't want to hear "welll, MOST of the fan base thinks like this." Really, most of them? Do you realize how many LSU alumni and fans exist on this planet?
To paint this vast number of varied, different, and individual people as all thinking the same way as 40-50 people on a message board is beyond
sublime and monumentally ignorant.

I didn't do that. I said the actions of said fans embarrassed me. And that the Internet made their voices seem louder. And this in turn makes all Tiger fans look like whiny bitches.

Again - didn't do this.

Maybe re-read?
